  Starz FilmCenter - Gallery 30
  Most members of the local cinematic community wish that our state were an industry hub. It's arguable that for every filmmaker who remains here, there's another who had to leave to attain success. Is it possible to make it as a filmmaker in Colorado? It is it unrealistic to think that one can have a world-class career without moving to either New York or Los Angeles?

  Starz FilmCenter - Gallery 30
  Admirers of Iranian cinema have long been puzzled by the gap between the images that it presents to the world and those offered by the nation’s government. The international film community has elevated Iranian directors to the world stage, recognizing the simple beauty of their works and, increasingly, the complex issues of contemporary life they examine. In either case, Iran has made an indisputable contribution to global cinematic culture. But the Iran that one encounters in the news media app...
